This is absolutely ridiculous! USC needs to take the NCAA to court! There is nothing to lose at this point. If nothing else, the NCAA must stand by their sanctions, and punish everyone else as well. Reggie Bush played in two bowl games, and thus, the reason for the two bowl game suspension. What do you say when your head coach (Ohio State) knowingly plays 4 or 5 ineligible players in a bowl game. Wow, it's going to be interesting what the NCAA will find as just and equitable punishment. Mostly, I feel terrible for the young men on the team. These players were literally in elementary school and junior high school when Bush played at SC. They are paying the price, and that is absolutely disgusting! This is one of the most un-American, unconstitutional, and unjust things I have ever seen. Fight on.
